I’ve stood before thousands to lead worship and raise my hands in praise to Him. I’ve sung solos on auto pilot while thinking about lunch and that lady’s crazy outfit on the front row. And just because we’re singing with our eyes closed and our hands raised, doesn’t mean we’re worshipping. And as the years […]
There’s Just Something About a Song
There’s something about a song that can take me back. Back to where I was, what I thought, and how I felt at the time. What is it about music that has the power to transport us back in time and sweep us off to another place … taking us back to the exact moment […]

I’m rejoicing this new day that He’s alive! I’m celebrating that He’s victorious, and has conquered, And I’m overwhelmed at what that means for you, and for me!

Giving Thanks to Him with Song

A surrender of what I want, what I […]
Over the Top!
I’m still reeling and reveling in my experience this past weekend…a Women of Faith, over-the-top arena event, with thousands of women joined together in worship… To learn, and cry, and laugh, and be inspired together… To sit in the midst of so many who love our God, and to pursue together… The richness of His grace… The redemptive power of […]
A Broken Hallelujah
In Real Life… …I’m a mess at times, and much more broken than I seem. In real life I long to belong. I long to relate. I long to connect. I long to know and be known by another. In real life, with each life change and circumstance shift, I’m being stretched and challenged. And I am growing and […]
With Hearts Kneeled and Bowed Down
Sundays are for singing and worshipping… For bowing down… And kneeling before the Lord our God, our Maker… May your heart be full of joy and awe, as you worship and sing, and kneel…and bow your heart before our Maker… What song is your heart singing this day?
Cries of Praise
Sundays are for crying out in praise… May you give Him the praise of your whole heart today, sweet friends…
